• B. If either I or II is strong
• C. If neither I nor II is strong
• D. If both I and II are strong

The correct option is A

If only Argument I is strong

Argument I is strong because soft drinks contain some harmful chemicals which are harmful to school children. But argument II is not strong because we cannot ban wrong things in a democracy.
